Traffic X and Traffic 360
-
Hi Bill,
The cursor restriction is from the gauge programming. We mask out the normal controls and replace them with our own system. That's the only way we can do things like have the steering inputs affected by things like hydraulic pressure.
I went and had a look back over the code this afternoon and I worked out a way to fix this. You can download an updated gauge from here if you want to give it a try - https://justflight.sharefile.com/d-s53c90751028478c9
Just copy it over the top of the existing version in the Hawk's panel folder.Thanks for the kind words.

I did lose MFS for a few weeks when I had a calamity with the computer, and the SSds I had windows 7 and MFS were destroyed, + one with trains on steam,
I have since rebuilt two new computers, one now with win7, MFS, and now with trains on steam, with three SSDs, the other with win 10 and steam with trains, two SSDs.
I am still using trafficX, I did pre order 360 when it first came out as it was supposed to be an upgrade to traffic X, but like Raym I found it was not,
I think I only got my system going again as I rebuilt with same type of motherboard, and other parts, so it looked the same to Microsoft. and I clone my drives, so I still had
SSDs with MfS on, When I first started with MFS I found it was a job to find parking for any flights I made up, as it was already filled up, Plus problems like a float plane
landing at Marham and getting stuck on the runway, so the way I made way for my flights to park, was to delete all aircraft parked on U/K airfields, I know RayM would most likely create his own parking , I did learn a lot when I first started making up flights, fromFreddySoarandenaqndRayMabout how to do it, As the manual only told you part of the method, I mostly fly a Lancaster, as that is near the same as the Lincolns I worked on as a electrician in 1951/2/3 at Watton and Hemswell, ollso did quite a few hours fliying in them, including one 8 hour flight the long way to Gibralta, and a flight over the mediteranian dropping window to jam the navy radar,
I have at the moment got 320 of my flights on the computer, I compile using only VFR traffic u/k, and only Europe as country, I think I must be getting to old to be playing around with these computer things,

Hello Bill,
thanks for replying in this TrafficX/Traffic 360 topic saying that you are still using T360 and that you are mainly using it to give you an 'active' background of aircraft whilst you do your flying. T360 does the job despite any shortcomings. -
Hello Harry,
pleased to hear that you have got your computer systems up and running again.
Good that you are using the flexibility of Traffic X to suit what you want to achieve. You will be getting faster load up speeds and frame rates.
Enjoy your nostalgic flying. -
I have been watching a post in the ADE forum for a few days concerning the replacement of SABA with TNCS and how it has to be done. I thought I would give it a go out of interest.
Before starting, I had a look at seeing what flights my Traffic X had scheduled for SABA. Much to my surprise there were several B777, B747, A340 and MD11 aircraft all 'hoping' to use this tiny airport which is only suitable for Islanders and Twin Otters. It was very interesting to watch a 747 approach and go-around. All have now been re-routed or deleted of course but I wonder what other 'interesting' schedules' have been come across by Traffic X / Traffic 360 users?

Not much of a response to this thread! However, I have only just found this forum!
I have been an MSFS flyer since 3.1.
I am using Traffic 360 upgraded from X which was upgraded from Traffic 2005.
I mainly fly ORBX Australia and New Zealand plus occasionally some flights into Kai Tak (old Hong Kong).
I have adjusted the database , added some flights in and out of certain airfields, added some repaints.
I find T360 does all I want it to.
Still have some issues with ATC not referring to airlines correctly - of course some of that was due to the ATC codes not correctly used in the cfg files.Yes, I like T360.

@geoffk79
Pleased to hear from another user of TrafficX/Traffic 360. Welcome.
You seem to be working and flying in the same areas as our friend "Freddy".
Adding and modifying schedules can be a great way of 'passing the time' whilst not actually flying and, yes, both of these programs contain a lot of poorly constructed 'aircraft.cfg' files. I have found loads of missing or wrong ATC names and, sadly, quite a few instances of aircraft being designated to an airline incorrectly when another airline of a similar name exists. -

I've replaced the airline traffic for something more up to date but retained the airport vehicles and Military AI components of T360. -

Makes sense - seems it is taking a long time for TG to get the package into a complete state - airlines, military and business/private schedules.

@RayM
Apparently, there are no immediate plans to add military traffic to TG and, although they do say that there will be an upgrade the current GA (which is just a mix of a few T360 and default planes), probably after final release. -

A good question.
Although I imagine responses to this question may potentially be skewed, present day, depending on …How many people have not yet noticed there's been a forum change,

And how many people have noticed there's been a forum change and have registered here.That said, I'll try to get the ball rolling and throw in a confirmation to your statement/question above …
I am indeed still using Traffic X and continue to enjoy what it offers. It is a little long in the tooth now, but is such that if you're willing to put in the work, you can keep its aircraft, its liveries, and its schedules well enough up to date.HI Every one I am still using FSX and Traffic x in 2021

Hi Freddy I am still to using FSX and Traffic x just reinstalled the whole thing when I had to get a new computer, but how do I get rid of the UNHANDLED EXCEPTION errors or have parts of Traffic X not working correctly. Is there still a fix for this in 2021, or how do you fix this problem again? Great to see you are still here.
